A True Family Business
Lock and Gallagher is a true family business whose mission is to provide outstanding chauffeured transport at a cost effective price. It was formed in 1955 by Eric Lock with support from his brother-in-law, John Gallagher. The business soon exceeded early expectations meaning both John and wife, Bet joined the company, John driving, and Bet doing the administration. However, in 1970 Eric Lock left the business to become a bookmaker and with John’s other businesses taking up more of his time he bought in Alf and Doris Webber to oversee and manage the business which they did until their retirement in 1996.
John’s son, Lee now the current proprietor, joined the company in 1993 however it took the Webbers 3 years to mould the “21 year old worlds best driver” into a chauffeur and effective administrator before allowing them to retire and the business to strive in the years ahead.
Under Lee’s direction, the company has tripled in size with its organic growth fuelled only by its excellent reputation and the maintenance of a 5 star service level that does not compromise.
